Sähkömittareiden kaukoluenta (AMR) on tällä hetkellä ajankohtainen aihe, koska useat verkkoyhtiöt ovat tehneet jo päätöksen mittaustoiminnan automatisoinnista ja monissa yhtiöissä ovat selvitykset parhaillaan menossa tai suunnitteilla. Erilaisten ennusteiden mukaan kaikki Suomen sähkömittarit tulevat ajan myötä kaukoluettaviksi, mutta aikataulun arviot vaihtelevat viidestä viiteentoista vuoteen. Diplomityössä on tutkittu Lahti Energia Oy:lle soveltuvaa sähkömittareiden kaukoluentajärjestelmää ja siihen investoimisen kannattavuutta. Tarkastelun kohteena on ollut yhtiölle kaukoluennasta kertyvät kustannukset ja sen avulla saavutettavat säästöt. Koska mittareiden kaukoluennasta on yhtiössä vain vähän kokemusta, lasketut säästöt perustuvat olettamukseen ja arvioituihin lukemiin. Lisäksi työssä on käsitelty yhtiön jakelualueen alueittaista jaottelua kaukoluennan kannattavuuden suhteen ja tutkittu kaukoluennan vaikutuksia yhtiön toimintoihin sekä sen tuomia mahdollisuuksia. Kaukoluennan myötä saadaan täsmällistä tietoa energiankulutuksesta ja asiakkaita voidaan laskuttaa todelliseen mittarinlukemaan perustuen. Sen avulla tulevat mahdollisiksi myös useat lisäpalvelut tai toiminnot, kuten tuntimittaus, sähkön laadun seuranta, sähkökatkojen rekisteröinti ja sähköjen etäkatkaisu. Kaikkia kyseisiä palveluita ei tarvitsevälttämättä hankkia kerralla vaan ne voidaan ottaa myös optiona.

In liberalized electricity markets, which have taken place in many countries over the world, the electricity distribution companies operate in the competitive conditions. Therefore, accurate information about the customers’ energy consumption plays an essential role for the budget keeping of the distribution company and for correct planning and operation of the distribution network. This master’s thesis is focused on the description of the possible benefits for the electric utilities and residential customers from the automatic meter reading system usage. Major benefits of the AMR, illustrated in the thesis, are distribution network management, power quality monitoring, load modelling, and detection of the illegal usage of the electricity. By the example of the power system state estimation, it was illustrated that even the partial installation of the AMR in the customer side leads to more accurate data about the voltage and power levels in the whole network. The thesis also contains the description of the present situation of the AMR integration in Russia.

A district heating system comprises production facilities, a distribution network, and heat consumers. The utilization of new energy metering and reading system (AMR) is increasing constantly in district heating systems. This heuristic study shows how the AMR system can be exploited in finding optimization opportunities in district heating system. In this study, the district heating system is mainly considered from the viewpoint of operational optimization. The focus is on the core processes, heat production and distribution. Three objectives were set to this study. The first one was to examine general optimization opportunities in district heating systems. Second, to figure out the benefits of AMR for general optimization opportunities. Finally, to define a methodology for process improvement endeavors. This study shows, through a case study, the usefulness of AMR in specifying current deficiencies in a district heating system. Based on a literature review, the methodology for the improvement of business processes is presented. Additionally, some issues related to future competitiveness of district heating are concerned. As a conclusion, some optimization objectives are considered more desirable than others. Study shows that AMR is useful in the specification of optimization targets in the district heating system. Further steps in optimization process were not examined in detail. That would seem to be interesting topic for further studies.
